Golf shoes have changed dramatically over the last few decades. Modern golf shoes are now made of tough yet light-weight materials and have been designed to very high standards. But one of the most intriguing changes is located on the sole.
Not so long ago Thilo Kehrer Saint-Germain Jersey , metal spikes were the only way to go when it came to adding traction to golf shoes. Generally speaking, they were easy to care for; you simply scraped the mud off of them or unscrewed them entirely and put new ones in. As for their holding ability, they were very good at providing players with the needed traction and stability on both dry grass and wet grass. But they were not perfect.
Anyone who has worn golf shoes with metal spikes will tell you that these metal spikes could easily damage greens. Careless players, especially those who dragged their feet Presnel Kimpembe Saint-Germain Jersey , could literally ruin a green in a matter of moments.
Metal spikes were also notorious for ruining clubhouse floors and carpeting inside carts. All in all, they could be a nightmare for groundskeepers and maintenance personnel.
Then along came golf shoes with a different slant on how to keep the player's feet steady. They call these little wonders soft spikes.
Soft spikes are made of hardened rubber or plastic. They do the same work that metal spikes do, namely, keeping the player's feet solidly planted during the swing Neymar Saint-Germain Jersey , but they do far less damage to greens or other surfaces.
Like metal spikes, most golf shoes that now come with soft spikes allow players to replace the spikes as they wear down or become broken. Replacement spikes are inexpensive, and they are easy to change. You simply unscrew the old ones from the sole and screw the new ones in.
Many players who have worn both metal and plastic spiked golf shoes say the newer soft spikes are more comfortable to wear on the course. They also say, however Edinson Cavani Saint-Germain Jersey , that the plastic or rubber nubs wear down faster than metal. This only makes sense, but since new nubs are so inexpensive, this should not be a major deterrent to buying these types of golf shoes.
It should be noted that because metal spikes can do so much damage, they are now being outlawed on many golf courses. If you plan to buy a new pair of golf shoes Thiago Silva Saint-Germain Jersey , and you are considering metal spikes, you may want to check with the club you play at to see if they still allow metal spikes. You don't want to waste your money on golf shoes that you will not be able to use.
If you are buying golf shoes for younger players, your best option is to go with the rubber nubs or plastic spikes. The hot, new styles in golf shoes that kids love almost universally avoid the metal spikes of yesteryear. And Authentic Angel Di Maria Jersey , frankly, for younger players, the soft spikes are just more comfortable to play in, especially if they are walking the course.

After pulling out our microscope and taking a closer look, the Dahle 20453 Cross-Cut Shredder has proved to be a worthy machine. It's a fairly versatile machine with a not-too-crazy price tag either (but remember you can often get a better deal if you call or email :-) Overall we'd recommend this machine but I suggest that you take a look at the specs yourself.
Security
At a level 3 security, this cross-cut shredder gets the job done. Although there are higher levels of security Authentic Marco Verratti Jersey , a level 3 machine provides a sufficiently small cut size to put your identity theft worries to bed. We also like the cross-cut because it takes up much less space which means that you won't have to empty your bin as frequently as you would with a strip-cut machine. There is really no reason to jump up to a level 4 machine unless you have some ultra-sensitive documents you need destroyed.
Shredable Material
The Dahle 20453 Cross-Cut Shredder can shred CDs, Credit Cards, Paper, Paper Clips Authentic Marquinhos Jersey , Staples. If you need to be able to shred something else then we recommend that you look at a larger machine andor look for something with a little bit lower security (the higher the security the less likelihood that the machine shreds something other than paper).
Continuous Motor
This shredder is rated for continuous operation. That means that theoretically you could shred all day long and the machine would not have to shut-down to cool off. Remember that results may vary under real-world operating conditions and things such as the temperature of the room will affect the ability of this motor to stay cool and continue to shred. We give this machine 2 pats on the back for being rated continuous duty and we know that you'll appreciate this feature in due time.
Bin Size
The Dahle 20453 Cross-Cut Shredder sports a hefty 50 gallon bin. We know that you're not messing around when you get up in this size. You'll be able to go quite some time before you have to actually empty that thing out. Fill up your machine, skip the gym and just carry the full bag around the office all day!
Throat Size
A 17 inch throat means that you can fit just about anything into this bad boy. Gone are the days of folding your oversized paper or crumpling and jamming your machine with regular-sized paper. This guy gets 2 thumbs up for the often underestimated large throat size.
